WNBA Sunday July 5 2026: Prop Picks Spotlight Marina Mabrey, Jewell Loyd, and Fever‑Aces Matchup

Marina Mabrey returns after a one‑game absence and looks to build on her recent 53‑point performance that tied the league’s all‑time scoring record. With Brittney Sykes out for the foreseeable future and A’ja Wilson sidelined with a leg injury, Jewell Loyd is expected to take on a larger role for the Chicago Sky. Analysts note that the Toronto Tempo’s weak rebounding and defensive ratings create a favorable matchup for Mabrey, while Jessica Shepard ranks among the league’s top rebounders and is projected to dominate the paint.

On the same night, the Indiana Fever travel to face the Chicago Sky. The Fever have lost five straight games and struggled against the spread, while the Sky are favored by 3.5 points. Odds suggest a total of 181.5 points, with many bettors targeting the over. The predictions recommend backing the Sky at -3.5 and the game total to exceed 181.5 points.
